Rear Module Installation (Optional)
If you are installing the card in a 8310-C-BNC or 8310-BNC frame (one with a 100 BNC rear module
installed across the entire back plane), skip this section.
If you are installing the card into a slot with no rear module, you should have ordered and received one
of the RM-9032-A module. You will need to install it in your 8310 frame before you can connect
cables.
Use the following steps to install a rear module in an 8310 openGear
1. Refer to the openGear
properly installed according to instructions.
2. On the rear of the 8310, locate the card frame slot.
3. As shown in Figure 2, seat the bottom of the rear module in the seating slot at the
base of the frame’s back plane.

Card Control and Status
Card Status
The card indicates the status of the input signal with the four blue LEDs labeled with the different
supported formats (625, 525). When the card has locked to a particular input format, that LED will be
illuminated. When the card has not locked to a particular video format, the card will search all possible
formats, and the lights will cycle rapidly.
Menu Navigation
The card can be configured from a menu system built in to the front card edge. This provides an
intuitive and easy to use method for exploring and using the features of the card.
The menu is navigated by using the toggle switch and the two push buttons. The lower button is the
“Enter” button to enter a submenu, and the upper button is the “Exit” button to exit a submenu. Moving
the toggle switch up or down moves up or down in menu choices, and pressing the buttons moves in or
out of sub menus.
The menu LEDs will illuminate from top to bottom to indicate increasing depth in the menu.

This is Luma (Y channel) offset, expressed as an actual video value ranging from -1024 to 1024. If set
to 0 no change is made. If set to 1024 absolute black (value 004) becomes absolute white (value 3FB).

This is Chroma (C channel) phase adjustment, expressed in degrees, ranging from –360 to +360 in
steps of one degree.
Decoder SD Input
Selects the input format for SD analog video. This must be changed to reflect the analog video format
on the input for the 9032-SD to lock correctly. Valid SD formats are GBR, Component SMPTE,
Component MII, Component Betacam, Component Y/C, and Composite.
SD Pedestal (Setup)
Selects between 0 IRE and 7.5 IRE of setup (pedestal) on the input analog SD signal. This tells the
card how much setup needs to be removed from the input.

Frame Sync Enable
Enables the frame sync. If disabled the output video timing matches the input video timing.
Horizontal Offset
Allows the user to specify an additional horizontal offset between the output video and the frame sync
reference in sample clock periods.
Vertical Offset
Allows the user to specify an additional vertical offset between the output video and the frame sync
reference in lines. These are lines in the reference format, not the output video format.
Frame Latency
Specifies the smallest amount of latency allowed by the frame sync. This latency measurement is in
frames of the output video. The frame sync will not output a frame unless the specified number of
frames are captured in the buffer. Minimum latency is three lines and zero frames in all video modes.
The maximum latency is format dependent. The operational latency of the frame sync is always
between the specified minimum latency and minimum latency plus one frame (not one field).
Audio Delay
Specifies the amount of additional audio delay after matching video delay. When the change is under
one and a half frames, the change in audio delay will be applied without interrupting audio. When
changing audio delay more than a frame and a half at a time, there will be a slight audio glitch.

1. Visual Review Performing a quick visual check may reveal many problems, such
as connectors not properly seated or loose cables. Check the module, the frame, and
any associated peripheral equipment for signs of trouble.
2. Power Check Check the power indicator LED on the distribution frame front
panel for the presence of power. If the power LED is not illuminated, verify that the
power cable is connected to a power source and that power is available at the power
main. Confirm that the power supplies are fully seated in their slots. If the power
LED is still not illuminated, replace the power supply with one that is verified to
work.
3. Reseat the Card in the Frame Eject the card and reinsert it in the frame.
4. Check Control Settings Refer to the Installation and Operation sections of the
manual and verify all user-adjustable component settings.
5. Input Signal Status Verify that source equipment is operating correctly and that a
valid signal is being supplied.
6. Output Signal Path Verify that destination equipment is operating correctly and
receiving a valid signal.
7. Module Exchange Exchanging a suspect module with a module that is known to
be working correctly is an efficient method for localizing problems to individual
modules.
8. Red Error Light – If the red error light is illuminated, verify that the frame sync is
set to the same reference that is being used on the back of the openGear
(REF1 LOOP or REF2 LOOP), and that the reference is properly terminated.
